    Cheers, yeah man. The funny thing was after I got my degree in June I was casually looking for work but could not really find anything to suit me so I thought, im still young, my degree is very broad, why don't I specialise in something and then just focus on that completely...I was thinking about HR for a while and since I could find no jobs that interested me (I have money saved up thankfully so I don't have to work any dead-end job) I decided I should go for the MSc, when I applied and got my place...3 potential jobs opportunities presented themselves. One was a youth worker working minimum wage which I did not want to really go into because it would be focused strictly in the public sector, I wanted more leeway because the public sector in the UK is suffering BIG TIME, second was to work as a financial officer, I got headhunted but it did not really appeal to me and the third was doing an admin role for RBS which is a bank here in the UK which I was actually going to apply to once I finished uni but they had no vacancies and only had vacancies once I had got my MSc place lmao.

    Anyways, I am hoping my university secures internship opportunities for us with its programme and links (they are actively trying to atm, I got in touch with them) and I have also requested the full years timetable so I can figure out when I can actually work a full time internship. Could potentially help me for my 12 thousand word dissertation as well.

    My degree was honestly a walk in the park but this MSc is more testing because of the sheer workload, I would say the work is about 20% tougher but the workload is about 60% higher which is the real kicker.

    Anyone doing a PhD demands respect. That **** makes an MSc look like a walk in the park lol.

        Now my bills are paid, I work minimally, I am in optimal physical condition. I don`t have nearly as much money but I am phucking free.

        How'd you manage that? Disability scam?
